Min. Thomas A. Whitfield & The Company. Grant Park, Chicago. June 13th, 1992

[@cityboy1977]

I shall never forget being in attendance at Gospel Fest 1992. What an amazing year! I feel truly honored to have witnessed this final live offering of the Maestro and his Company. How Awesome!❤️😍

[@chaplaintaylor2327]

God morning, I was there at this concert, it was the first time I saw Thomas Whitfield in person, before he left this plane of existence. Marvelous he was and the true Maestro.

[@nashshaffer6235]

I was there for this. We (Soul Children of Chicago) sung right before they did. He died the following week. We were crushed 💔 But they gave an excellent performance ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ryannewsome2981]

I was in the audience. You all sang He Died For Me. I think the Rutledge Sisters were there. I had no idea who Thomas Whitfield was. I left after you all sang. As an adult, I now see how great Thomas Whitfield is

[@nellwalker5751]

...and I remember my brother (an organist) calling me to tell me--in tears--about his passing. That's the music that would be blaring from his van during the week.

I was there and it was Awesome and after the song Oh Hallelujah I immediately fell in love with Thomas Whitfield and His Amazing Choir.

I need a time machine!!!NOW!!!

[@JazzSoulMetal]

Right!!! Lol

[@w3bwarrior120]

If you get a time machine, go the recordings of the Encourage Me and Hallelujah album in Cleveland, OH.

[@mch-aka007]

This is so amazing! I really wish there was a video for this!!! Min Thomas Whitfield & Co trailer blazers, just before their time!!

[@chuggerjr]

OMG! I had this on VHS. They used to show the Chicago gospel fest on an auxiliary cable channel back then. I had this & John P Kee recorded. I wore those tapes out! I remember this like it was yesterday, thanks for posting.

[@recott05]

I always fast track to Oh Hallelujah, Just A Look, and Oh, How I Love Jesus. I love how his band slipped in a little Bobby Brown at the end of Oh, How I Love Jesus as the choir is transitioning off the stage. I really wish I could’ve seen him live! Rest in Power, Maestro!

[@brianboyd7883]

This is one of his last concerts. He passed away a week later. RIP Minister Thomas! We miss you!!

Brian you are absolutely correct i was living in Chicago at that time cause it was where I was born and raised and you are correct after that Grant Park concert we received word Thomas Whitfield had passed away and I was totally devastated.

[@gladyslester2017]

Nobody can sing this song like Thomas Whitfield and Company…… the one God gave this song to!

[@rrandle44]

Omg!!!! I can truly feel the spirit of Min Thomas Whitfield thru this Video ... I like the fact that he must knew he had a certain amount of time because he didn't do alot of talking between songs....just minister song after song is crazy!! I love it...oh how I love Jesus is the best arrangement I've ever in my life!!! The fact that he took it and made it into a choir version is unbelievable...thank you so h for posting this! I only pray that millions of ppl will be able to listen to this video and feel the anointing and spirit just like I have!!

[@JazzSoulMetal]

Great find!!!! Are there other songs!

[@WHCharlesJr]

Tommy!!!

[@JaySmith-mz7vg]

Wow. I can clearly hear how much he influenced Fred Hammond. My mind immediately went to FH during that first song.

[@can_you_guess_my_new_username]

Who leads the song PRAISE THE LORD? (The female)

[@Marcell77]

Wendy Davis

[@can_you_guess_my_new_username]

Thanks, I've always wanted to know who she was. Do you know whether she still sings? I can't find any other videos of her.

[@Marcell77]

Sadly no. Wendy has been ill since the late 1990s.

[@ElijahLukeMusic]

Happy Agnostic-Theist Wendy

[@westonkillian5552]

@@Marcell77 have you heard anything about Wendy Davis I used to sing with her way back in the early 80s late 70s with Donald Vails and the Voices of Deliverance
